  • "Perfectly located for touring The Wild Atlantic Way."

    The Pods are beautifully located on their own lake and Pods 1 - 3 have a hot tub to enjoy the view. The associated cafe was a real bonus as the food and staff are exceptional. The pods are very comfortable and well furnished. They have everything a traveller needs to base themselves on the Donegal coast for a few nights.
